 Masking a password textbox to appear as all *****

Hi all,

For my new project that I am sopposed to do I decided to have a
login/password screen where the user needs to login. What I would like to
add is that when the user is entering the password all the letters he is
entering would of course be saved in a variable but what you would see in a
text box is just asteriks.

How would I go about doing this?

Thank you,

Have a look at the text box PasswordChar property:

Text1.PasswordChar = "*"

The TextBox has a PasswordChar property.. just set it to an * ..
